Favorite movie quotes

What was the first movie? In Full Metal Jacket, they're standing in front of the bodies of people killed by the Viet Cong and the regular North Vietnamese Army. There were also reports that the South Vietnamese killed some too. War is always ugly.


The first quote:
We're mixing our lives together, Maily, and we'll never be able to unmix them again, and we'll never want to. I take you for what you are, and all that you are, and mix you with all of me, and I don't hold back nothing. When you're cold, and hungry, and afraid, so am I. I'm going to stay with you all that I can, take the best care of you that I can, and love you 'til I die.


It's from The Sand Pebbles.

It's probably been over twenty years since I've seen that movie. I assume Holman (McQueen) says that line? Hard to believe, but the studio built a full-size, seaworthy gunboat for the equivalent of about $2.5 million. Nowadays, they'd just CGI the thing. But it looked great in the film.

This is for all you new people. I have only one rule. Everybody fights, no one quits. If you don't do your job, I'll kill you myself! Welcome to the Roughnecks!

Richard Attenborough, as Frenchy when he marries the local girl.

They'd CGI it and it would look fake...

This also sounds like Fight Club, which we're not supposed to talk about.
 
Now I want you to remember that no bastärd ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.
 
George Stone: [after Ness has pushed Nitti off the roof and gone back into the courthouse] Where is Nitti?
Ness: He's in the car.

The Untouchables 1987 (Of course, it's total bullshit historically speaking), Frank Nitti was killed by Mrs. Green in the study with a candle stick.

George C. Scott really hams it up in the movie. His role as General Turgidson earlier was good preparation. Americans have never lost a war? Well, some Confederate said, I think, "We're all Americans, but we have a different country." They certainly tried to win, and they spent four years at it.

He shot himself to death in 1943 when facing a possible prison sentence and possibly also because of his failing health. He's buried in the same cemetery as Al Capone.

Wadsworth: You *were* jealous that your husband was schtupping Yvette. That's why you killed him, too!
Mrs. White: Yes. Yes, I did it. I killed Yvette. I hated her, so much...
[stammers] Mrs. White: it-it- the f - it -flam - flames. Flames, on the side of my face, breathing-breathl- heaving breaths. Heaving breaths... Heathing...

Clue 1985 (one of the very best movies every made!!!)
 
Theo (Kevin Bacon), confronting his younger wife, Susanna (Amanda Seyfried), after finding out she's been carrying on an affair.

"I bet that guy can fuck you all night, huh?"

"Don't make it ugly."

"Oh, I am a hundred percent sure I'm not the one that made this ugly."

You Should Have Left
 
I read that the writers of Dirty Harry wrote the screenplay with John Wayne in mind for the leading role.

Dirty Harry 1971

Bressler: Put in for overtime.
Harry Callahan: That'll be the day!

Further proof, the writers wanted John Wayne to play Harry Callahan!

Clint Eastwood is almost twice my age, I’m in good health. I wouldn’t fight that man for love or money.
 
Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth, but you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that, and that ain't you. You're better than that! I'm always gonna love you, no matter what. No matter what happens. You're my son, and you're my blood. You're the best thing in my life. But until you start believing in yourself, you ain't gonna have a life. Don't forget to visit your mother.

Rocky Balboa 2006

It should be noted that Robert Balboa's mother was in a cemetery.
 
"Look, mother, I want to go to work in one hour. We are the Pros from Dover and we figure to crack this kid's chest and get out to golf course before it gets dark. So you go find the gas-passer and you have him pre-medicate this patient. Then bring me the latest pictures on him. The ones we saw must be 48 hours old by now. Then call the kitchen and have them rustle us up some lunch. Ham and eggs will be all right, steak would be even better. And then give me at least ONE nurse who knows how to work in close without getting her tits in my way."
